Before the Last Train Leaves

Description

Some journeys change your destination. Others change your heart.

What if missing a train was the best thing that ever happened to you?

Mara Okonkwo has spent the past eleven months making sure she is always on time—until heartbreak leaves her standing in a Paris train station, questioning where she is supposed to go next.

Then a broken coffee machine, a spilled drink, and one missed train bring her face-to-face with Theo, a weary traveler carrying a guitar, a complicated past, and his own reasons for not rushing home.

The last train to Marseille leaves without them.

What begins as an unexpected night between two strangers slowly becomes a journey neither of them planned. Through empty stations, long roads, difficult memories, a trip toward the coast, and conversations that arrive years too late, Mara and Theo discover that sometimes the detours we never choose are the ones that lead us exactly where we need to be.
